NEXT_BUDDY was disabled with the introduction of EEVDF and enabled again
after NEXT_BUDDY was rewritten for EEVDF by commit e837456fdca8 ("sched/fair:
Reimplement NEXT_BUDDY to align with EEVDF goals"). It was not expected
that this would be a universal win without a crystal ball instruction
but the reported regressions are a concern [1][2] even if gains were
also reported. Specifically;
o mysql with client/server running on different servers regresses
o specjbb reports lower peak metrics
o daytrader regresses
The mysql is realistic and a concern. It needs to be confirmed if
specjbb is simply shifting the point where peak performance is measured
but still a concern. daytrader is considered to be representative of a
real workload.
Access to test machines is currently problematic for verifying any fix to
this problem. Disable NEXT_BUDDY for now by default until the root causes
are addressed.

When the kallsyms relative base was introduced, per-CPU variable
references on x86_64 SMP were implemented as offsets into the respective
per-CPU region, rather than offsets relative to the location of the
variable's template in the kernel image, which is how other
architectures implement it.
This required kallsyms to reason about the difference between the two,
and the sign of the value in the kallsyms_offsets[] array was used to
distinguish them. This meant that negative offsets were not permitted
for ordinary variables, and so it was crucial that the relative base was
chosen such that all offsets were positive numbers.
This is no longer needed: instead, the offsets can simply be encoded as
values in the range -/+ 2 GiB, which is precisely what PC32 relocations
provide on most architectures. So it is possible to simplify the logic,
and just use _text as the anchor directly, and let the linker calculate
the final value based on the location of the entry itself.
Some architectures (nios2, extensa) do not support place-relative
relocations at all, but these are all 32-bit and non-relocatable, and so
there is no need for place-relative relocations in the first place, and
the actual symbol values can just be stored directly.
This makes all entries in the kallsyms_offsets[] array visible as
place-relative references in the ELF metadata, which will be important
when implementing ELF-based fg-kaslr.

1) The commit:
2b8272ff4a70 ("cpu/hotplug: Prevent self deadlock on CPU hot-unplug")
was added to fix an issue where the hotplug control task (BP) was
throttled between CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD and CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE waiting
in the hrtimer blindspot for the bandwidth callback queued in the dead
CPU.
2) Later on, the commit:
38685e2a0476 ("cpu/hotplug: Don't offline the last non-isolated CPU")
plugged on the target selection for the workqueue offloaded CPU down
process to prevent from destroying the last CPU domain.
3) Finally:
5c0930ccaad5 ("hrtimers: Push pending hrtimers away from outgoing CPU earlier")
removed entirely the conditions for the race exposed and partially fixed
in 1). The offloading of the CPU down process to a workqueue on another
CPU then becomes unnecessary. But the last CPU belonging to scheduler
domains must still remain online.
Therefore revert the now obsolete commit
2b8272ff4a70b866106ae13c36be7ecbef5d5da2 and move the housekeeping check
under the cpu_hotplug_lock write held. Since HK_TYPE_DOMAIN will include
both isolcpus and cpuset isolated partition, the hotplug lock will
synchronize against concurrent cpuset partition updates.

Currently, rq->idle_stamp is only used to calculate avg_idle during
wakeups. This means other paths that move a task to an idle CPU such as
fork/clone, execve, or migrations, do not end the CPU's idle status in
the scheduler's eyes, leading to an inaccurate avg_idle.
This patch introduces update_rq_avg_idle() to provide a more accurate
measurement of CPU idle duration. By invoking this helper in
put_prev_task_idle(), we ensure avg_idle is updated whenever a CPU
stops being idle, regardless of how the new task arrived.
Testing on an 80-core Ampere Altra (ARMv8) with 6.19-rc5 baseline:
- Hackbench : +7.2% performance gain at 16 threads.
- Schbench: Reduced p99.9 tail latencies at high concurrency.

It turns out that __run_hrtimer() will trace like:
<idle>-0 [032] d.h2. 20705.474563: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xff2db8f77f8226e8

Which is a bit nonsensical, the timer doesn't get canceled on
expiration. The cause is the use of the incorrect debug helper.

If a time slice extension is granted and the reschedule delayed, the kernel
has to ensure that user space cannot abuse the extension and exceed the
maximum granted time.
It was suggested to implement this via the existing hrtick() timer in the
scheduler, but that turned out to be problematic for several reasons:
1) It creates a dependency on CONFIG_SCHED_HRTICK, which can be disabled
independently of CONFIG_HIGHRES_TIMERS
2) HRTICK usage in the scheduler can be runtime disabled or is only used
for certain aspects of scheduling.
3) The function is calling into the scheduler code and that might have
unexpected consequences when this is invoked due to a time slice
enforcement expiry. Especially when the task managed to clear the
grant via sched_yield(0).
It would be possible to address #2 and #3 by storing state in the
scheduler, but that is extra complexity and fragility for no value.
Implement a dedicated per CPU hrtimer instead, which is solely used for the
purpose of time slice enforcement.
The timer is armed when an extension was granted right before actually
returning to user mode in rseq_exit_to_user_mode_restart().
It is disarmed, when the task relinquishes the CPU. This is expensive as
the timer is probably the first expiring timer on the CPU, which means it
has to reprogram the hardware. But that's less expensive than going through
a full hrtimer interrupt cycle for nothing.

The kernel sets SYSCALL_WORK_RSEQ_SLICE when it grants a time slice
extension. This allows to handle the rseq_slice_yield() syscall, which is
used by user space to relinquish the CPU after finishing the critical
section for which it requested an extension.
In case the kernel state is still GRANTED, the kernel resets both kernel
and user space state with a set of sanity checks. If the kernel state is
already cleared, then this raced against the timer or some other interrupt
and just clears the work bit.
Doing it in syscall entry work allows to catch misbehaving user space,
which issues an arbitrary syscall, i.e. not rseq_slice_yield(), from the
critical section. Contrary to the initial strict requirement to use
rseq_slice_yield() arbitrary syscalls are not considered a violation of the
ABI contract anymore to allow onion architecture applications, which cannot
control the code inside a critical section, to utilize this as well.
If the code detects inconsistent user space that result in a SIGSEGV for
the application.
If the grant was still active and the task was not preempted yet, the work
code reschedules immediately before continuing through the syscall.

Provide a new syscall which has the only purpose to yield the CPU after the
kernel granted a time slice extension.
sched_yield() is not suitable for that because it unconditionally
schedules, but the end of the time slice extension is not required to
schedule when the task was already preempted. This also allows to have a
strict check for termination to catch user space invoking random syscalls
including sched_yield() from a time slice extension region.

Implement a prctl() so that tasks can enable the time slice extension
mechanism. This fails, when time slice extensions are disabled at compile
time or on the kernel command line and when no rseq pointer is registered
in the kernel.
That allows to implement a single trivial check in the exit to user mode
hotpath, to decide whether the whole mechanism needs to be invoked.

It happens that fair is updating and syncing the pelt clock with task one
when pick_next_task_fair() fails to pick a task but before the prev

When calling refcount_inc(&event->mmap_count) inside perf_mmap_rb(), the

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

PoC:

This occurs when creating a group member event with the flag
PERF_FLAG_FD_OUTPUT. The group leader should be mmap-ed and then mmap-ing
the event triggers the warning.
Since the event has copied the output_event in perf_event_set_output(),
event->rb is set. As a result, perf_mmap_rb() calls
refcount_inc(&event->mmap_count) when event->mmap_count = 0.
Disallow the case when event->mmap_count = 0. This also prevents two
events from updating the same user_page.

The "valid" readout delay between the two reads of the watchdog is larger
than the valid delta between the resulting watchdog and clocksource
intervals, which results in false positive watchdog results.
Assume TSC is the clocksource and HPET is the watchdog and both have a
uncertainty margin of 250us (default). The watchdog readout does:
1) wdnow = read(HPET);
2) csnow = read(TSC);
3) wdend = read(HPET);
The valid window for the delta between #1 and #3 is calculated by the
uncertainty margins of the watchdog and the clocksource:
m = 2 * watchdog.uncertainty_margin + cs.uncertainty margin;
which results in 750us for the TSC/HPET case.
The actual interval comparison uses a smaller margin:
m = watchdog.uncertainty_margin + cs.uncertainty margin;
which results in 500us for the TSC/HPET case.
That means the following scenario will trigger the watchdog:
Watchdog cycle N:
1) wdnow[N] = read(HPET);
2) csnow[N] = read(TSC);
3) wdend[N] = read(HPET);
Assume the delay between #1 and #2 is 100us and the delay between #1 and
Watchdog cycle N + 1:
4) wdnow[N + 1] = read(HPET);
5) csnow[N + 1] = read(TSC);
6) wdend[N + 1] = read(HPET);
If the delay between #4 and #6 is within the 750us margin then any delay
between #4 and #5 which is larger than 600us will fail the interval check
and mark the TSC unstable because the intervals are calculated against the
previous value:
wd_int = wdnow[N + 1] - wdnow[N];
cs_int = csnow[N + 1] - csnow[N];
Putting the above delays in place this results in:
cs_int = (wdnow[N + 1] + 610us) - (wdnow[N] + 100us);
-> cs_int = wd_int + 510us;
which is obviously larger than the allowed 500us margin and results in
marking TSC unstable.
Fix this by using the same margin as the interval comparison. If the delay
between two watchdog reads is larger than that, then the readout was either
disturbed by interconnect congestion, NMIs or SMIs.

The current comment "Clear TID on mm_release()?" ends with a question
mark, implying uncertainty about whether the TID is actually cleared in
mm_release().
However, the code flow is deterministic. When a task exits, mm_release()
explicitly checks 'tsk->clear_child_tid' and clears.
Since this behavior is unambiguous, remove the confusing question mark and
rephrase the comment to clearly state that TID is cleared in mm_release().

bpf_address_lookup() has been used only in kallsyms_lookup_buildid(). It
was supposed to set @modname and @modbuildid when the symbol was in a
module.
But it always just cleared @modname because BPF symbols were never in a
module. And it did not clear @modbuildid because the pointer was not
passed.
The wrapper is no longer needed. Both @modname and @modbuildid are now
always initialized to NULL in kallsyms_lookup_buildid().
Remove the wrapper and rename __bpf_address_lookup() to
bpf_address_lookup() because this variant is used everywhere.

Put the code for appending the optional "buildid" into a helper function,
It makes __sprint_symbol() better readable.
Also print a warning when the "modname" is set and the "buildid" isn't.
It might catch a situation when some lookup function in
kallsyms_lookup_buildid() does not handle the "buildid".
Use pr_*_once() to avoid an infinite recursion when the function is called
from printk(). The recursion is rather theoretical but better be on the
safe side.

Add a helper function for reading the optional "build_id" member of struct
module. It is going to be used also in ftrace_mod_address_lookup().
Use "#ifdef" instead of "#if IS_ENABLED()" to match the declaration of the
optional field in struct module.

The @modname and @modbuildid optional return parameters are set only when
the symbol is in a module.
Always initialize them so that they do not need to be cleared when the
module is not in a module. It simplifies the logic and makes the code
even slightly more safe.
Note that bpf_address_lookup() function will get updated in a separate
patch.

Patch series "kallsyms: Prevent invalid access when showing module
buildid", v3.
We have seen nested crashes in __sprint_symbol(), see below. They seem to
be caused by an invalid pointer to "buildid". This patchset cleans up
kallsyms code related to module buildid and fixes this invalid access when
printing backtraces.
I made an audit of __sprint_symbol() and found several situations
when the buildid might be wrong:
+ bpf_address_lookup() does not set @modbuildid
+ ftrace_mod_address_lookup() does not set @modbuildid
+ __sprint_symbol() does not take rcu_read_lock and
the related struct module might get removed before
mod->build_id is printed.
This patchset solves these problems:
+ 1st, 2nd patches are preparatory
+ 3rd, 4th, 6th patches fix the above problems
+ 5th patch cleans up a suspicious initialization code.
This is the backtrace, we have seen. But it is not really important.
The problems fixed by the patchset are obvious:

This patch (of 7)
The function kallsyms_lookup_buildid() initializes the given @namebuf by
clearing the first and the last byte. It is not clear why.
The 1st byte makes sense because some callers ignore the return code and
expect that the buffer contains a valid string, for example:
- function_stat_show()
- kallsyms_lookup()
- kallsyms_lookup_buildid()
The initialization of the last byte does not make much sense because it
can later be overwritten. Fortunately, it seems that all called functions
behave correctly:
- kallsyms_expand_symbol() explicitly adds the trailing '\0'
at the end of the function.
- All *__address_lookup() functions either use the safe strscpy()
or they do not touch the buffer at all.
Document the reason for clearing the first byte. And remove the useless
initialization of the last byte.

The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.
Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations.
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.
Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.
The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)
The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

Patch series "vmcoreinfo: support VMCOREINFO_BYTES larger than PAGE_SIZE".
VMCOREINFO_BYTES is defined as a configurable size, but multiple
code paths implicitly assume it always fits into a single page.
This series removes that assumption by allocating and mapping
vmcoreinfo based on its actual size.
Patch 1 updates vmcoreinfo allocation to use get_order(VMCOREINFO_BYTES).
Patch 2 updates crash kernel handling to correctly allocate and map
multiple pages when copying vmcoreinfo.
This makes vmcoreinfo size consistent across the kernel and avoids
future breakage if VMCOREINFO_BYTES grows.
(No functional change when VMCOREINFO_BYTES == PAGE_SIZE.)
This patch (of 2):
VMCOREINFO_BYTES defines the size of vmcoreinfo data, but the current
implementation assumes a single page allocation.
Allocate vmcoreinfo_data using get_order(VMCOREINFO_BYTES) so that
vmcoreinfo can safely grow beyond PAGE_SIZE.
This avoids hidden assumptions and keeps vmcoreinfo size consistent across
the kernel.

We were wasting a byte due to an off-by-one bug. s[c]nprintf() doesn't
write more than $2 bytes including the null byte, so trying to pass
'size-1' there is wasting one byte.
This is essentially the same as the previous commit, in a different
file.

Remove <linux/hex.h> from <linux/kernel.h> and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include <linux/hex.h> as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.
Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.
This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also,
all users/callers of <linux/hex.h> in the entire source tree have been
updated if needed (if not already #included).

Introduce bpf_async_update_prog_callback(): lock-free update of cb->prog
and cb->callback_fn. This function allows updating prog and callback_fn
fields of the struct bpf_async_cb without holding lock.
For now use it under the lock from __bpf_async_set_callback(), in the
next patches that lock will be removed.
Lock-free algorithm:
* Acquire a guard reference on prog to prevent it from being freed
during the retry loop.
* Retry loop:
1. Each iteration acquires a new prog reference and stores it
in cb->prog via xchg. The previous prog is released.
2. The loop condition checks if both cb->prog and cb->callback_fn
match what we just wrote. If either differs, a concurrent writer
overwrote our value, and we must retry.
3. When we retry, our previously-stored prog was already released by
the concurrent writer or will be released by us after
overwriting.
* Release guard reference.

Add check to ensure that ARG_PTR_TO_MEM is used with either MEM_WRITE or
MEM_RDONLY.
Using ARG_PTR_TO_MEM alone without flags does not make sense because:
- If the helper does not change the argument, missing MEM_RDONLY causes the
verifier to incorrectly reject a read-only buffer.
- If the helper does change the argument, missing MEM_WRITE causes the
verifier to incorrectly assume the memory is unchanged, leading to errors
in code optimization.

After commit 37cce22dbd51 ("bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access type tracking"),
the verifier started relying on the access type flags in helper
function prototypes to perform memory access optimizations.
Currently, several helper functions utilizing ARG_PTR_TO_MEM lack the
corresponding MEM_RDONLY or MEM_WRITE flags. This omission causes the
verifier to incorrectly assume that the buffer contents are unchanged
across the helper call. Consequently, the verifier may optimize away
subsequent reads based on this wrong assumption, leading to correctness
issues.
For bpf_get_stack_proto_raw_tp, the original MEM_RDONLY was incorrect
since the helper writes to the buffer. Change it to ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM
which correctly indicates write access to potentially uninitialized memory.
Similar issues were recently addressed for specific helpers in commit
ac44dcc788b9 ("bpf: Fix verifier assumptions of bpf_d_path's output buffer")
and commit 2eb7648558a7 ("bpf: Specify access type of bpf_sysctl_get_name args").
Fix these prototypes by adding the correct memory access flags.

This patch implements range tracking (interval analysis) for BPF_DIV and
BPF_MOD operations when the divisor is a constant, covering both signed
and unsigned variants.
While LLVM typically optimizes integer division and modulo by constants
into multiplication and shift sequences, this optimization is less
effective for the BPF target when dealing with 64-bit arithmetic.
Currently, the verifier does not track bounds for scalar division or
modulo, treating the result as "unbounded". This leads to false positive
rejections for safe code patterns.
For example, the following code (compiled with -O2):
```c
int test(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
char buffer[6] = {1};
__u64 x = bpf_ktime_get_ns();
__u64 res = x % sizeof(buffer);
char value = buffer[res];
bpf_printk("res = %llu, val = %d", res, value);
return 0;
}
```
Generates a raw `BPF_MOD64` instruction:
```asm
; __u64 res = x % sizeof(buffer);
1: 97 00 00 00 06 00 00 00 r0 %= 0x6
; char value = buffer[res];
2: 18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0x0 ll
4: 0f 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 += r0
5: 91 14 00 00 00 00 00 00 r4 = *(s8 *)(r1 + 0x0)
```
Without this patch, the verifier fails with "math between map_value
pointer and register with unbounded min value is not allowed" because
it cannot deduce that `r0` is within [0, 5].
According to the BPF instruction set[1], the instruction's offset field
(`insn->off`) is used to distinguish between signed (`off == 1`) and
unsigned division (`off == 0`). Moreover, we also follow the BPF division
and modulo runtime behavior (semantics) to handle special cases, such as
division by zero and signed division overflow.
- UDIV: dst = (src != 0) ? (dst / src) : 0
- SDIV: dst = (src == 0) ? 0 : ((src == -1 && dst == LLONG_MIN) ? LLONG_MIN : (dst / src))
- UMOD: dst = (src != 0) ? (dst % src) : dst
- SMOD: dst = (src == 0) ? dst : ((src == -1 && dst == LLONG_MIN) ? 0: (dst s% src))
Here is the overview of the changes made in this patch (See the code comments
for more details and examples):
1. For BPF_DIV: Firstly check whether the divisor is zero. If so, set the
destination register to zero (matching runtime behavior).
For non-zero constant divisors: goto `scalar(32)?_min_max_(u|s)div` functions.
- General cases: compute the new range by dividing max_dividend and
min_dividend by the constant divisor.
- Overflow case (SIGNED_MIN / -1) in signed division: mark the result
as unbounded if the dividend is not a single number.
2. For BPF_MOD: Firstly check whether the divisor is zero. If so, leave the
destination register unchanged (matching runtime behavior).
For non-zero constant divisors: goto `scalar(32)?_min_max_(u|s)mod` functions.
- General case: For signed modulo, the result's sign matches the
dividend's sign. And the result's absolute value is strictly bounded
by `min(abs(dividend), abs(divisor) - 1)`.
- Special care is taken when the divisor is SIGNED_MIN. By casting
to unsigned before negation and subtracting 1, we avoid signed
overflow and correctly calculate the maximum possible magnitude
(`res_max_abs` in the code).
- "Small dividend" case: If the dividend is already within the possible
result range (e.g., [-2, 5] % 10), the operation is an identity
function, and the destination register remains unchanged.
3. In `scalar(32)?_min_max_(u|s)(div|mod)` functions: After updating current
range, reset other ranges and tnum to unbounded/unknown.
e.g., in `scalar_min_max_sdiv`, signed 64-bit range is updated. Then reset
unsigned 64-bit range and 32-bit range to unbounded, and tnum to unknown.
Exception: in BPF_MOD's "small dividend" case, since the result remains
unchanged, we do not reset other ranges/tnum.
4. Also updated existing selftests based on the expected BPF_DIV and
BPF_MOD behavior.

Now that all the __prog suffix users in the kernel tree migrated to
KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS, remove it from the verifier.
See prior discussion for context [1].

Implement bpf_stream_vprintk with an implicit bpf_prog_aux argument,
and remote bpf_stream_vprintk_impl from the kernel.
Update the selftests to use the new API with implicit argument.
bpf_stream_vprintk macro is changed to use the new bpf_stream_vprintk
kfunc, and the extern definition of bpf_stream_vprintk_impl is
replaced accordingly.

A kernel function bpf_foo marked with KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS flag is
expected to have two associated types in BTF:
* `bpf_foo` with a function prototype that omits implicit arguments
* `bpf_foo_impl` with a function prototype that matches the kernel
declaration of `bpf_foo`, but doesn't have a ksym associated with
its name
In order to support kfuncs with implicit arguments, the verifier has
to know how to resolve a call of `bpf_foo` to the correct BTF function
prototype and address.
To implement this, in add_kfunc_call() kfunc flags are checked for
KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS. For such kfuncs a BTF func prototype is adjusted to
the one found for `bpf_foo_impl` (func_name + "_impl" suffix, by
convention) function in BTF.
This effectively changes the signature of the `bpf_foo` kfunc in the
context of verification: from one without implicit args to the one
with full argument list.
The values of implicit arguments by design are provided by the
verifier, and so they can only be of particular types. In this patch
the only allowed implicit arg type is a pointer to struct
bpf_prog_aux.
In order for the verifier to correctly set an implicit bpf_prog_aux
arg value at runtime, is_kfunc_arg_prog() is extended to check for the
arg type. At a point when prog arg is determined in check_kfunc_args()
the kfunc with implicit args already has a prototype with full
argument list, so the existing value patch mechanism just works.
If a new kfunc with KF_IMPLICIT_ARG is declared for an existing kfunc
that uses a __prog argument (a legacy case), the prototype
substitution works in exactly the same way, assuming the kfunc follows
the _impl naming convention. The difference is only in how _impl
prototype is added to the BTF, which is not the verifier's
concern. See a subsequent resolve_btfids patch for details.
__prog suffix is still supported at this point, but will be removed in
a subsequent patch, after current users are moved to KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS.
Introduction of KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS revealed an issue with zero-extension
tracking, because an explicit rX = 0 in place of the verifier-supplied
argument is now absent if the arg is implicit (the BPF prog doesn't
pass a dummy NULL anymore). To mitigate this, reset the subreg_def of
all caller saved registers in check_kfunc_call() [1].
